Prayer Law and Legal Definition Prayer is a term subject to different meanings, but in the legal context, it refers to the specific amount asked for as damages at the end of a complaint or petition. A prayer gives the judge an idea of what is sought, and a defendant who fails to answer may have a default judgment entered against him/her for the amount prayed for.
The phrase pray and work (or pray and labor, in Latin ora et labora) refers to the Christian monastic practice of working and praying, generally associated with its use in the Rule of Saint Benedict. Benedict viewed prayer and work as partners, and believed in combining contemplation with action.
